Fortuna 69 is back!

Well who would expect this? After over a year of not existing, Fortuna 69 is back! Somehow, in the most recent few hotfixes, as of May 26th, Fortuna 69 is accessible once again, and the same community have returned to make sure it stays open. What is Fortuna 69 though? Well, it’s quite a story. When Fortuna released, there were so many people playing that we had hundreds of instances, mini-servers filled with players. As the Fortuna hype slowly died down, many of these instances disappeared as players dwindled. However, in instance 69, players worked together to keep Fortuna 69… [Continue Reading]

I Miss Fortuna 69

In Warframe, we have relays and areas where Tenno can congregate and talk to each other. These hubs are entirely peaceful, with no guns allowed, and they generally house a bunch of NPCs which have things for us to buy. The first hub area you go to is either Larunda on Mercury, or Cetus on Earth, depending on which way you go. Then there’s places like the Orcus relay, the Zariman or Tenno Dojos which require a bit more work to access. Either way, these places are one of the few peaceful places in Warframe, and you’ll always see a… [Continue Reading]

Bring Back Fortuna 69, the Nicest Place in Warframe

It turns out, when you stop playing Warframe for a bit, you miss out on a few things. But for me, I missed out on something not so nice. It turns out, three months ago, the Fortuna 69 had disappeared! For those of you who don’t remember, Fortuna 69 is an instance that had been kept up and alive while all other Fortuna instances (aside from 1) faded away. Fortuna 69 was kept open by the community, with all sorts of people visiting and AFKing within the instance, stopping it from shutting down and closing. With a team of Tenno… [Continue Reading]

Rest in Peace Fortuna 69

Super edit: Turns out the DEvelopers heard our cries and brought back Fortuna 69! Now we can all be nice together again! Super edit 2: Fortuna 69 is down once more, thanks to bad timing on a Angels of the Zariman hotfix. This applies to both pre-New War and post-New War Fortuna 69 relays. Unfortunately, it seems like the Saint of Altra update claimed a victim and it wasn’t Volt or Zephyr being overtaken by Gauss. The Fortuna 69 instance, which had been kept alive since Fortuna was released back in October last year, failed to survive the update. Due… [Continue Reading]

Fortuna 69

When you do a mission in Warframe, one of the four players in your squad (or one of the eight players back when raids existed) is the mission’s host. Your completion of that mission, your ability to extract and get rewards and also your ping and latency all depend on the host. This applies to all missions, including solo play (where you host) and things like the Conclave. The only exceptions to this player-based hosting are the social areas – the relays and places like Cetus, Fortuna and Iron Wake, which are hosted by Digital Extremes. As one server becomes… [Continue Reading]
